A still with Bogart
from their second film together, Howard
Hawks' THE BIG SLEEP
(1946). This fast-moving film-noir thriller is riddled with entertaining
dialog and was originally made in 1944 though held back from release until
1946. See my page on the film to find out why and read an explanation of
the complicated plot.
After appearing briefly together as themselves in a
Warner Bros. comedy
entitled TWO GUYS FROM MILWAUKEE (1946), posters from their third and fourth
co-starring films together:
DARK PASSAGE (1947) also with Agnes
Moorehead, and
John Huston's KEY LARGO
(1948) with
Edward G. Robinson and Lionel
Barrymore.
A studio publicity still as Nora Temple and Frank McCloud
from their final film together, KEY LARGO (1948).
Memorable Quotations:
"You know you don't have to act with me, Steve. You don't have
to say anything, and you don't have to do anything....not a thing. Oh,
well maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You
just put your lips together and blow." --as Slim in TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT.
"I'm hard to get, Steve. All you have to do is ask me."
